- 1 June 2001
This study investigated the performance (absolute and relative) of 10 marker‐based relatedness estimators using allele frequencies at microsatellite loci obtained from natural populations of two bird species and one mammal species and shows that there is no single best‐performing estimator.

It is concluded that post‐fragmentation levels of vagility, without reference to past population connectivity, may not be the best predictor of how forest fragmentation affects the life history of forest‐dependent species.
Geographical distance and physical barriers shape the genetic structure of Eurasian red squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris) in the Italian Alps

Analysis of patterns of genetic variability of red squirrels in and between seven sites distributed over 250 km of Alpine habitat, using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and microsatellites, indicates that local landscape factors other than geographical distance per se affect gene flow and determine differentiation.
Isolation and characterization of microsatellite markers in the African catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822)

Specific microsatellite primers for Clarias gariepinus are developed in order to perform paternity tests and to characterize wild and domesticated populations and their potential use in other catfish is reported.
Morphometric and allozyme variation in the African catfishes Clarias gariepinus and C. anguillaris

Morphological characters and electrophoretic polymorphism at 25 protein loci in nine wild populations of the African clariid catfish Clarias gariepinus and sevenWild populations of C. anguillaris suggest that C. garie pinus is not a monophyletic group and allozyme data suggest thatC.

New Insights on Water Buffalo Genomic Diversity and Post-Domestication Migration Routes From Medium Density SNP Chip Data
- L. Colli, M. Milanesi, P. Ajmone-Marsan

The data suggest that the current distribution of water buffalo diversity has been shaped by the combined effects of multiple migration events occurred at different stages of the post-domestication history of the species.
Cross-species amplification of microsatellite primers in passerine birds

- 1 June 2000
Cross-species amplification tests of 40 microsatellite primers in 13 passerine species show an increase in probability of amplification and polymorphism with decreasingphylogenetic distance and it is crucial to identify such markers empirically.
Genetic structure of the forest herb Primula elatior in a changing landscape
- H. Jacquemyn, O. Honnay, P. Galbusera, I. Roldán‐Ruiz
- Environmental ScienceMolecular ecology
- 1 January 2004
To investigate whether changes in land use and associated forest patch turnover affected genetic diversity and structure of the forest herb Primula elatior, historical data on landscape changes were…
Genetic variability and gene flow in the globally, critically-endangered Taita thrush
- P. Galbusera, L. Lens, T. Schenck, E. Waiyaki, E. Matthysen
- Biology, Environmental ScienceConservation Genetics
- 1 March 2000
Analysis of 155 individuals with seven polymorphicmicrosatellite DNA markers showed significant genetic differentiation between the only three remaining subpopulations of the globally, critically-endangered Taita thrush, and identified putative dispersers using two recently-developed assignment tests based on individual genotypes.
